However, many students hold a wait-and-see attitude. For various reasons, they are no longer interested in learning, or want to earn money as soon as possible after graduation, or worry that there is not enough financial support for graduate school. After all, I am in my twenties, and I no longer want my parents to ask for money. There is no absolute right or wrong in people's choice. It is good for people with previous ideas to find jobs and accumulate work experience as soon as possible after graduation, but I want to tell those students who gave up graduate school because of economic problems that graduate school really doesn't cost much, and the school still has various subsidies every year. Children in ordinary families don't have to worry about the cost of graduate school at all.
Next, let's take a look at various subsidies during graduate school.
First of all, graduate students are divided into full-time and part-time students. Most college graduates are full-time graduate students, and most working people will choose part-time graduate students if they want to improve their academic qualifications. If they are not full-time, they will study while working. Because of the salary, the cost of studying doesn't matter. Let's talk about the subsidy for full-time graduate students here.
1. State subsidies. At present, the state subsidizes 6,000 yuan per person per year, covering all graduate students. Some schools will distribute it in different semesters, and some schools will distribute it in different months, but no matter what form, this 6,000 yuan can be obtained by graduate students during their school days.
2. Scholarships. Scholarships are divided into national scholarships and school scholarships. The national scholarship is 20 thousand a year, and the bonus amount is very considerable, but few people get it. If you are one of the high flyers in this major, you have published many articles and done good research, then you can apply with confidence, and the probability is still very high. Scholarships in schools are generally divided into first, second and third grades, ranging from several thousand dollars per grade. Scholarship coverage varies from 30% to 40%, and the highest can reach 80%, depending on the specific school.
3. Post subsidies such as teaching assistant fees and invigilation fees. For some large-scale exams, the school will arrange some graduate students as invigilators to assist teachers. At this time, there will be invigilation fees, and senior graduate students will have the opportunity to serve as teaching assistants or laboratory administrators. These specific positions will be given certain subsidies.
4. Research group tutor subsidy. This depends on the tutor and the whole research group. Some research groups apply for many topics and have sufficient funds. Of course, the workload is heavy. When you meet a good tutor, the monthly subsidy is also considerable, ranging from several hundred yuan to thousands of yuan.
5. Internship salary. Some graduate students will practice in their work units for a period of time during their graduate studies, during which they will be paid a certain salary.
In fact, you don't have to worry about the financial problems of graduate school at all. Tuition is borne by the national student loan, and it is interest-free. As long as you are willing to work hard and are not afraid of hardships, there is bread. This year, the country will expand the scale of postgraduate enrollment, which is a rare opportunity. Come on, students taking the postgraduate entrance examination!
